Electronic Hydraulic Power
Steering (EHPS)
Tilt Steering/Telescope Steering
This system uses an electromotor to
assist your steering. When the
engine is turned OFF, or when the
EHPS becomes inoperative, you
may still steer the vehicle, but it
requires more effort in steering.
When you notice such a change
while steering, have the EHPS
checked by an authorized EQUUS
dealer.

NOTICE
Adjust the steering wheel angle (2)
and position (3) with the knob (1) on
the steering column. Move the steer-
ing wheel, so it points toward your
chest, not toward your face. Make
sure you can monitor the warning
lights and gauges on the instrument
cluster. After adjusting, slightly push
up and down the steering wheel to
assure that it is locked in position.
Always adjust the position of the
steering wheel before driving.
Do not turn the steering wheel to
the extreme right or left for five
seconds or over, while running the
engine.This may cause damage to
the EHPS motor pump.
i Information
When there is a malfunction with the
EHPS motor pump, the efforts to steer
may greatly increase.
i Information
WARNING
When the vehicle is parked outside for
an extended period of time at a cold
temperature (below 14°F/-10°C), the
power steering may require more
efforts, after first starting the engine.
This is due to the increased fluid vis-
cosity at a cold temperature and does
not indicate a malfunction.
NEVER
adjust the steering
wheel while driving. This may
cause loss of vehicle control,
resulting in an accident.
When this happens, depress the accel-
erator to increase the engine RPM,
until it reaches 1,500 rpm. Then, let
the engine idle for two-to-three min-
utes to warm up the fluid.
